			 (*)Depreciation which forms part of Resource DEL, is excluded from Total DEL since Capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting. 
		
	
	The change in the resource element of DEL arises from:
	An increase in administration expenditure of £2,846,000 from £12,619,000 to £15,465,000
	An increase in appropriations in aid provision of £2,719,000 from £12,192,000 to £14,911,000. Due to a policy decision GAD will be unable to generate sufficient income to remain within the net resource limit and a reserve claim of £300,000 to meet this shortfall is included which will be deducted from next year's DEL total.
	An increase in non-voted DEL of £95,000 from £6,000 to £101,000 to cover the cash effect of payments made against two provisions for ongoing early retirement and injury benefit costs under the civil service injury benefit scheme.
	The change in the capital element of DEL arises from a budget switch of £72,000 from non-staff resource DEL expenditure.

	The change in the resource element of DEL arises from:
	Reserve claim of £12,500,000 administration (approved by CST) to fund the use of debt collection agencies in tackling £500 million of tax debt;

	The change in the administration budget arises from the specific administration items detailed in the resource element above.
	The change in the capital element of DEL arises from:
	£35,000,000 funds transfer from capital to resource del (administration), to correct the alignment of HMRC's share of the austerity savings recorded at the main estimate.

Departmental Expenditure Limit (2010-11)

Justine Greening: Subject to parliamentary approval of the spring supplementary estimate, HM Treasury's resource DEL will be increased by £14,148,000 from £180,063,000 to £200,231,000. The administration budget will be increased by £12,724,000 from £137,594,000 to £150,318,000. The impact on resources, including the administration budget is set out in the following table:

	The net increase in resource DEL of £14,148,000 is the net effect of the take-up of administration budget (£2,400,000) and programme (£1,600,000) EYF in RfR1 section A to fund the costs of the increased work load which includes the funding of various new Treasury related bodies and the draw down from the modernisation fund of £7,598,000 administration costs to fund costs associated with the Fast Forward IT project. There is also a transfer of £5,552,000 from capital to resources to fund the increased work load pressures.
	As a result of the machinery of government (MoG) transfer of the Office of Government Commerce (OGC), £3,002,000 (£2,826,000 administration and £176,000 programme) is being transferred to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) to reflect the transfer of responsibility for the Government property and facilities management teams.
	Additionally there are movements from non-voted to voted spending within the DEL total to reflect the draw-down of departmental unallocated provision (DUP) of £709,000 administration and £1,716,000 programme and the reallocation of an underspend on utilisation of provision of £9,490,000 to voted spending.
	The administration budget is increasing by £12,724,000, which is the net effect of the EYF take-up (£2,400,000), draw-down from the modernisation fund (£7,598,000), a transfer from capital (£5,552,000) and the MoG transfer (£2,826,000) of OGC to BIS.
	The capital DEL decreases by £101,000 which is the net result of the draw-down of £5,451,000 from the modernisation fund to cover spending on the Fast Forward IT project less a transfer to resources of £5,552,000. Additionally, voted DEL is being increased by £3,400,000 following the take-up of DUP.

National Savings and Investments: Departmental Expenditure Limit (2010-11)

Mark Hoban: Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, National Savings and Investments resource departmental expenditure limit (DEL) will be increased by £3,942,000 to £172,344,000 and capital DEL will be increased by £1,000,000 to £1,464,000.

CABINET OFFICE

Social Investment Strategy

Francis Maude: My hon. Friend the Minister responsible for civil society, the Parliamentary Secretary, Cabinet Office, the hon. Member for Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner (Mr Hurd) and I are today publishing a strategy for social investment, "Growing the Social Investment Market", which gives more detail on the role of the big society bank, alongside other measures to build the market. I am placing copies in the Libraries of both Houses and making it available on the Cabinet Office website.
	Social entrepreneurs, and the social ventures they lead, bring innovative solutions to some of our most intractable social problems, by combining commitment to a clear social mission with financially sustainable business models. They are crucial to building a bigger, stronger society, as well as contributing to economic growth and employment. However, social entrepreneurs are often held back by a lack of access to investment finance, which means they find it difficult to get started, to expand their ventures and to achieve their full potential. This is particularly the case now that public spending is constrained and many organisations that may have previously relied on some grant funding to survive are having to cope with the difficult transition to a new financing landscape.
	The Government therefore want to accelerate the development of the emerging social investment market, to increase the supply of capital available to social ventures. Our vision is for a market in which investors-from individual citizens to large institutions and charitable trusts and foundations-can choose to "invest for good" by putting their money into organisations that create positive social impact and a financial return. In the long term we want this to become the norm: a third pillar of funding alongside traditional giving and public service income.
	The big society bank will play a crucial part in catalysing the development of this market, and some of its functions will be in place in April 2011. And we will now work with leading social investment experts to develop a proposal for the establishment of the big society bank as an independent private sector organisation, with its social mission "locked-in". The bank will act as a wholesaler to build the market and leverage in new finance. It will operate in a transparent way, publishing annual accounts including details of the financial and social impact of its investments, and it will be financially self-sufficient-able, in time, to cover its operating costs and make investments in line with its core mission. The bank will also act as a champion for the social investment market, offering advice and assistance, and acting as a vital portal to connect social ventures with sources of investment.
	Alongside establishing the big society bank, action being taken by Government-to open up public services to a wider range of providers; to empower communities to purchase and run local assets; to review the effectiveness of the current fiscal, regulatory and legal framework for social investment; and to provide financial and other support for social ventures to build their business capability-will help create the right conditions for the market to thrive and grow.
	Government and the big society bank cannot achieve this alone. So the strategy also calls on others to play their part. Social ventures and other civil society organisations will need to be willing to explore new forms of financing, and prove that they have financially sustainable business models. Existing specialist intermediaries will have a critical role in developing their product ranges and support and will need to compete with new intermediaries entering the market. Charitable trusts and foundations are in a good position to free up a portion of their investment and endowment assets, which account for nearly £95 billion, for social investment. We look to mainstream financial institutions to dedicate resources to create new products, to build expertise and to leverage their distribution networks. And ultimately, we want individual citizens to start to see social investment as a core savings proposition.
	Taken together this framework for action and the establishment of the big society bank will enable the great work being carried out by the innovative, committed people and organisations across the UK to have a major impact in building a better, stronger society.

Francis Maude: Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, the UK Statistics Authority's total departmental expenditure limit (DEL) will be increased by £700,000 from £319,533,000 to £320,233,000, and the programme budget will be increased by £700,000(1).
	Within the DEL change, the impact on resources and capital is as set out in the following table:
	
		
			 £'000 
			  Change New DEL 
			  Voted Non-Voted Voted Non-voted Total 
			 Resource DEL 2,300 -1,600 309,833 10,400 320,233

			 **Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in estimates and accounts but which are treated as capital DEL in budgets. *Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting 
		
	
	The change in the resource element of DEL arises from:
	The take-up of departmental unallocated provision (DUP) of £6,000,000 in order to finance 2011 Census
	Budget cover £700,000 from other Government Departments in support of the migration statistics improvement programme
	The change in the programme budget arises from draw-down of draw-down of £6,000,000 of DUP and budget cover from DCLG of £700,000.

COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Affordable Homes Programme

Grant Shapps: Further to my written statement of 9 December, Official Report, column 31WS, I am today announcing the publication of the framework for the Government's affordable homes programme for 2011-15. This document is published jointly by my Department and the Homes and Communities Agency.
	The affordable homes programme is designed to support the delivery of up to 150,000 new affordable homes through a mixture of new investment (some £4.5 billion over the next four years) and greater flexibility for social housing providers to make the best use of existing and future assets. The new affordable rent model, which will be the principal element of the programme, will make public subsidy go further while also enabling local authorities and providers to target support where it is most needed.
	The framework document invites offers from providers who are interested in participating in the programme. The full document is available at www.homesandcommunities.co.uk/affordable-homes.
	In parallel, my right hon. Friend the Minister with responsibility for decentralisation, the Minister of State, Department for Communities and Local Government, the Member for Tunbridge Wells (Greg Clark) has today launched a consultation on a technical revision to annex B of planning policy statement 3 to make clear that affordable rent falls within the definition of affordable housing for planning purposes. The consultation document is available at www.communities.gov.uk/publications/planningandbuilding/pps3annexconsultation.
	In addition, to give providers more certainty over future income, I have today confirmed that the existing inflation-linked formula for annual rent increases in social rented housing will continue to apply throughout the 2011-15 period, as part of the Government's rent restructuring policy.
	Copies of both documents have been placed in the Library of the House.

Departmental Expenditure Limit (2010-11)

Eric Pickles: Subject to parliamentary approval of the spring supplementary estimate, the Department for Communities and Local Government's departmental expenditure limits, (DEL) for 2010-11 will change as follows:
	Section 1: Main Programmes DEL
	1. The Department for Communities and Local Government's main DEL will be increased by £326,477,000 from £9,853,667,000 to £10,180,144,000 and the administration budget will be decreased by £2,100,000 from £262,012,000 to £259,912,000. Within the DEL change, the impact on resources and capital are as set out in the following table:

			  Change NEW DEL 
			  Voted Non-voted Voted Non-voted Total 
			 Resource 4,120 58 3,341,449 438,412 3,779,861

			 Total -2,357 328,834 4,601,637 5,578,507 10,180,144 
			 (*)Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets (**)Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL, since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting 
		
	
	2. The change in the resource element of the DEL arises from:
	2.1 An internal transfer of £522,000 from request for resources 1 (main DEL) to request for resources 2 (local government DEL) to pay the Audit Commission bill for fire inspection work;
	2.2 A net transfer of £4,700,000 from other Government Departments, made up of:
	
		
			 Transfers in (Programme total £7,500,000) 
			 Amount (£) Department Reason 
			 £2,500,000 Culture, Media and Sport Final contributions for 2010-11 towards the cross-Government OpenData policy 
			 £2,500,000 HM Revenue and Customs  
			 £2,500,000 Ministry of Justice  
			  
			 Transfers out (Programme total £700,000, Administration total £2,100,000) 
			 £700,000 Office of National Statistics £700,000 to fund migration statistics work 
			 £2,100,000 Work and Pensions To reflect reduced activity on administering European social fund payments 
		
	
	2.3 A net increase in receipts of £23,338,000. This is made up of increases in provision of:
	£100,000 for Residential Property Tribunal Service in respect of hearing application fees;
	£42,000 towards the aggregates minerals survey, comprising £20,000 from the Welsh Assembly, £12,000 from the Scottish Executive and£10,000 from the Department for Business Innovation and Skills;
	£600,000 from the Department for Energy and Climate Change towards the English Housing Survey;
	£9,810,000 for the Planning Inspectorate to bring the receipt in line with their projected income;
	£381,000 for fire and rescue services improvement programme for payment of the Audit Commission bill;
	£2,200,000 for control rooms in respect of compensation for building work on the East Midland Regional Control Centre;
	£2,500,000 for Ordnance Survey to cover their income from provision of OpenData;
	£7,955,000 for Government Office programmes (administration budget) comprising £440,000 for work on the older persons agenda; £1,515,000 for space lease out in Government Office buildings to minor occupiers and £6,000,000 for staff exit costs from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the Home Office and the Department for Education.
	offset by decreases in provision of:
	£250,000 for adults facing chronic exclusion as this income will not be received.
	2.4 A net transfer of £58,000 programme provision from non-voted to voted made up as follows:
	from voted to non-voted provision
	£159,000 to the Homes and Communities Agency in respect of the Advisory Team on Large Applications (ATLAS);
	£2,800,000 for Community Development Foundation for pension risks;
	£246,000 for Thurrock Urban Development Corporation to increase their depreciation budget;
	from non- voted to voted provision
	£3,147,000 to control rooms comprising £2,831,000 from the departmental unallocated provision and £316,000 from the Tenant Services Authority for costs associated with programme closure;
	2.5 The changes described at paragraphs 2.3 and 2.4 above have a net nil effect on the departmental expenditure limit. The additional budget sought for the items at 2.3 is fully offset by a corresponding increase in receipts. The net transfer between voted and non-voted expenditure reflects only a re-classification of budget, not additional expenditure.
	2.6 The change in the administration budget arises from the transfer of £2,100,000 from the Government Offices to the Department for Work and Pensions-see above table at 2.2.
	3. The change in the capital element of the DEL arises from:
	3.1 Draw-down of end of year flexibility of £390,000,000, as follows:
	£200,000,000 to fulfil the remaining national affordable housing programme commitments;
	£140,000,000 for contractual commitments on the decent homes programme and mortgage rescue scheme; and
	£50,000,000 for the Kickstart programme.
	3.2 Transfer to HM Treasury of £23,000,000 for the local authority new build to cover the local authority borrowing element of the programme. The local authority new build programme is funded by a mixture of the Homes and Communities Agency grants and local authorities own prudential borrowing. Prudential borrowing is treated as public expenditure and has to be reflected in HM Treasury's accounts. Therefore, HM Treasury require an offsetting transfer from DCLG budgets to HM Treasury's budget to reflect the increased borrowing requirement.
	3.3 A net increase in receipts of £128,979,000. This is made up of increases in provision of:
	£80,888,000 for the re-classification of the regional control centre leases from inventory to finance leases;
	£62,069,000 of potential assets to be transferred to the fire and rescue authorities;
	£4,046,000 for capital pooled housing receipts. These receipts are available to fund pressures arising elsewhere in the Department
	offset by decreases in provision of:
	£18,024,000 for the regional control centres leases that the Department is expecting to transfer out this financial year. HM Treasury agreed that the Department will receive a capital credit upon the transfer of any of the regional control centres leases.
	3.4 A transfer of £36,507,000 from non-voted to voted made up of:
	£20,000,000 of receipts generated from the Homes and Community Agency from development land disposals to community empowerment to meet emerging pressures;
	£7,553,000 from Homes and Communities Agency growth due to withdrawal of funding in support of eco-towns and
	an adjustment of £8,954,000 within new dimension for the surrendering of the extra receipts to the Consolidated Fund.
	3.5 The changes described at paragraphs 3.3 and 3.4 above have a net nil effect on the departmental expenditure limit:
	Section 2: Local Government DEL
	4. The Department for Communities and Local Government's local government DEL will be decreased by £648,000 from £25,990,195,000 to £25,989,547,000. Within the DEL change, the impact on resources and capital are as set out in the following table:
	
		
			  Change NEW DEL 
			  Voted Non-voted Voted Non-voted Total 
			 Resource -1,978 -15 25,861,068 115,338 25,976,406

			 (*)Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets (**)Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL, since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting. 
		
	
	5. The change in the resource element of the DEL arises from:
	the transfer of £522,000 to request for resources 2 (local government DEL) from request for resources 1 (main DEL) described at paragraph 2.1 above;
	a transfer of £2,500,000 to the Ministry of Justice towards the costs of the 7/7 bombing inquest costs. This item will not be shown on the face of the estimate, because voted provision can be reduced only for machinery of government changes and transfers from one request for resources to another within the same estimate. It will be classified as an estimate exclusion item; and
	a switch of £15,000 from resource to capital for valuation tribunals tocover additional telephone costs for their Doncaster office.
	6. The change in the capital element of the DEL arises from:
	a refund of £1,470,000 from the Department for Work and Pensions for Government Connect, due to an under spend on the project; and
	a switch of £15,000 to capital from resource as described above at paragraph 5.

CULTURE MEDIA AND SPORT

			 (*)Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets. (**)Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from total DEL since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting. 
		
	
	The change in the Resource element of the DEL arises from:
	Take up of £18,000,000 End Year flexibility comprising: (£10,000,000) for Museums and Galleries, and (£8,000,000) for Broadcasting; Claims on the Reserve totalling £56,000,000 comprising budgetary cover (£48,000,000) in respect of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, (£5,000,000) for the Listed Places of Worship Scheme and (£3,000,000) for costs associated with the sale of the Tote, and an agreed transfer of £60,000 from to Capital to Resource DEL to correct a misalignment of funds in the Winter Supplementary Estimate, partially offset by transfers to other Government Departments of £10,500,000, (£8,000,000) to support Stage 2 Devolution in Northern Ireland and (£2,500,000) to Department for Communities and Local Government for the Ordnance Survey contribution.
	The Capital element of the DEL has increased by £24,940,000 as a result of:
	The drawdown of £25,000,000 End Year Flexibility (EYF) for the Museums and galleries, and an agreed transfer of £60,000 from Capital to Resource DEL to correct a misalignment of funds in the Winter Supplementary Estimate.

Government Olympic Executive (Annual Report)

Hugh Robertson: I am publishing today the Government Olympic Executive's annual report-"GOE London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games Annual Report February 2011". This report explains the latest budget position as at 31 December 2010, and outlines the many wider economic, sporting and social legacy benefits to the UK.
	The overall public sector funding package for the games remains at £9.298 billion following the spending review announcement on 20 October 2010. The funding package will, however, be reconfigured from April 2011 to make provisions for operational requirements, reflecting the changing focus of the programme from construction to operational delivery. Also from April 2011, Government funding for the programme-excluding security which sits with the Home Office and other Government Departments-will be held by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
	The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games remain on time and within budget. The Olympic Delivery Authority's (ODA) anticipated final cost (AFC) now stands at £7.301 billion, which includes additional funding of £57 million for park operations.
	Park operations are the additional responsibilities taken on by the ODA for the operation of the Olympic park and its venues and facilities between 2011 and the handover to legacy owners by 2014. On a like-for- like basis, excluding the park operations budget, the current AFC has increased by £12 million from that of 30 September 2010. The £12 million increase is a consequence of several movements across the programme including forecast savings on the Olympic stadium, security and logistics, offset by forecast increases for infrastructure such as utilities and landscaping. Around £0.5 billion of contingency remains available for programme-wide risks. A total of over £780 million in savings has been achieved by the ODA since November 2007.
	The ODA continues to make strong progress in preparing the venues and infrastructure in the Olympic park, with 79 per cent of the programme to the 2012 games now completed. The Olympic stadium is structurally complete with the cable net roof covered, all 14 lighting towers in place and all spectator seats installed. The Aquatics Centre permanent structure and roof are in place, with the structures of the temporary seating stands for games-time spectators nearing completion. The Velodrome remains on target to be the first Olympic park sporting venue to be finished later this month. The structures of the handball and basketball arenas are now completed, with work progressing on the venues' interiors. The structures of the international broadcast centre, main press centre and multi-storey car park are all complete. Recent milestones of the project include the completion of the first brand new venue, the Lee Valley White Water Centre at Broxboume and the official turning on of the Olympic stadium lights by the Prime Minister and Mayor of London. As of December 2010, over 12,000 people were working on the Olympic park and Olympic village.
	In December 2010, the Government published a legacy plan, which sets out the legacy vision for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games and the detailed plans underpinning it. The Government are committed to making the most of the games for the whole of the UK. It has identified four areas to focus on: Harnessing the UK's passion for sport to increase grassroots participation, particularly by young people, and to encourage the whole population to be more physically active; exploiting to the full the opportunities for economic growth offered by hosting the games; promoting community engagement and achieving participation across all groups in society through the games; and ensuring that the Olympic park can be developed after the games as one of the principal drivers of regeneration in East London.
	I would like to commend this report to the members of both Houses and thank them for their continued interest in and support for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games.
	Copies of the GOE annual report February 2011 are available online at: www.culture.gov.uk and will be deposited in the Libraries of both Houses.

	Resource DEL
	The increase in the resource element of the DEL of £108,880,000 arises from a decrease in the voted element of the resource DEL of £2,124,182,000 and an increase of £2,233,062,000 in the non-voted element of resource DEL, mainly in the Department's Arm's Length Bodies.
	Voted Resource DEL
	The £2,124,182,000 decrease in the voted element of the resource DEL arises from:
	RFR1
	A Machinery of Government transfer to the Ministry of Justice of £195,000 in respect of Administration costs for the Joint Youth Justice Unit. This was a joint project between the Department for Education and the Ministry of Justice. Responsibility for this has been moved entirely to the Ministry of Justice. All Programme costs were transferred in the Winter Supplementary.
	A transfer from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills of £1,000,000 for the Family Learning Impact Fund to recoup unspent funding from 2009-10.
	A transfer from the Ministry of Justice of £250,000 in respect of Think Family Grants funding the Family Intervention Project.
	A switch of £110,000,000 from Resource spending to Capital Grants spending for Schools and Teachers.
	Take up of Departmental End Year Flexibility of £191,000,000 to increase provision for Dedicated Schools Grant.
	A movement from RfR2 of £5,411,000 to fund Free Childcare for Training and Learning for Work spending and to fund the delivery of the Outreach training programme.

JUSTICE

Departmental Expenditure Limit (2010-11)

Kenneth Clarke: Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) and The National Archives (TNA) and the UK Supreme Court (UKSC) total departmental expenditure Limit (DEL) will be increased as follows:
	Total DEL for MOJ (request for resource 1, 2 and 3) is increased by £95,593,000 from £9,099,706,000 to £9,195,299,000 and the administration budget has increased by £61,577,000 from £416,230,000 to £477,807,000.
	Total DEL for the TNA will be decreased by £155,000 from £39,272,000 to £39,117,000.
	Total DEL for the UKSC will be increased by a token £1,000.
	Within the total DEL change for MOJ (request for resource 1, 2 and 3), the impact on resource and capital are as set out in the following table:

SCOTLAND

Departmental Expenditure Limit (2010-11)

Michael Moore: Subject to parliamentary approval of the necessary supplementary estimates, the departmental expenditure limit (DEL) provision for the administration of the Scotland Office (including the office of the Advocate-General for Scotland) will be increased by £1,900,000 and this takes account of the take-up of resource DEL End Year Flexibility of £1,900,000.
	Scotland Office spending is contained within the single Ministry of Justice departmental expenditure limit and administration costs limit.
	The Scotland DEL will be decreased by £116,335,000 from £28,703,787,000 to £28,587,452,000. Within the total DEL change, the impact on resources and capital is set out in the following table:

	A DEL Reduction of £130,000,000(£30,000,000 resource and £100,000,000 capital);
	A claim on the DEL reserve of £28,665,000 for Student Loans Subsidy (cost of loan interest capping); and

	The take-up of Departmental Unallocated Provision of £4,000,000 from non-voted to voted DEL to increase the spending on the prosecution of criminal cases.
	An increase in the use of provisions for pension liabilities by £3,327,000 from voted to non-voted RDEL.
	The Serious Fraud Office's (SFO) element of the Attorney-General's total DEL will be unchanged at £41,546,000.
	The movements within Resource DEL leading to a net change of £131,000 arise from:
	The take-up of £ 176,000 of budget transfer from the Home Office for the NFA Action Fraud Programme.
	A transfer of £45,000 from Resource DEL to Capital DEL
	Total DEL is unchanged as depreciation costs are expected to increase by £176,000.

TRANSPORT

Blue Badge Reform Programme

Norman Baker: I am today publishing the Government's plans for reforming the Blue Badge (Disabled Parking) Scheme. The measures that I am announcing will help those who rely on Blue Badges for mobility reasons. The measures will tackle rising levels of fraud and abuse, and will ensure both that badges are issued more fairly and that the scheme remains sustainable in the long term for those who rely on it most. These reforms will be delivered as soon as possible, and many within a year.
	The scheme helps over 2.5 million disabled people in England retain their independence, by enabling them to park close to jobs, services and facilities. However, very few changes have been made to the scheme since it was established in the 1970s. Having listened to the views of badge holders, the general public, disabled people's groups and local authorities, it is evident that the scheme needs to be modernised to reduce current problems and deal with future challenges.
	I want to ensure that the scheme focuses better on those whom it was intended to benefit. In particular, this means targeting those people who misuse and abuse it to the disadvantage of genuine badge holders. Secondly, this means ensuring that people have fair and equal access to the concession and the benefits it offers, regardless of where they live.
	We are providing improved powers for local authorities to tackle abuse and fraud. This includes extending the grounds available to local authorities to refuse to issue and to withdraw badges and providing local authorities with a power to cancel badges that have been lost, stolen, have expired, or have been withdrawn for misuse. We are also providing local authority-authorised officers with an on-the-spot power to recover badges that have been cancelled or misused. We propose to amend existing legislation to clarify wrongful use of a badge and the powers to inspect badges.
	To prevent abuse from happening in the first place and to deal with rising levels of fraud and abuse, we are implementing a new badge design that is harder to copy, forge and alter. Arrangements for printing, personalising and distributing the badge are also being changed and will enable more effective monitoring of cancelled, lost and stolen badges.
	We are establishing, with local authorities, a common service delivery project which could deliver operational efficiency savings of up to £20 million per year, help to reduce and prevent abuse and improve customer services. The project will also make available an online application facility which should result in faster, more automatic renewals for people whose circumstances do not change between renewal periods.
	In order to ensure that badges are issued more fairly and consistently across the country, we are amending legislation to require wider use of independent mobility assessments to determine eligibility, including where previously that assessment was carried out by a GP. To support this, we are providing local authorities with control of the current national health service spend on Blue Badge assessments. In addition, new good practice guidance will be issued to local authorities to help them make improvements in scheme administration and eligibility assessment.
	We are extending eligibility for a badge to some other people, to address current anomalies and issues of fairness. Eligibility is being extended to more disabled children between the ages of two and three with specific medical conditions and we are providing continuous automatic entitlement to a badge to severely disabled service personnel and veterans. We also intend to remove residency requirements for disabled service personnel and their families who are posted overseas on UK bases. This will enable them to apply for a badge.
	To help cover costs more appropriately and to enable the delivery of a new badge design and the common service improvement project, we are raising the maximum fee for a badge that local authorities can charge from the £2 that it has been for nearly 30 years, to £10. The average benefit for badge holders from having a badge (and not having to pay parking charges) is estimated to be £300 over the three years for which most badges are valid. In return, badge holders will benefit from less abuse, improved accessibility and better customer services.
	I am also publishing today, a summary of responses to a public consultation on the scheme.

Cheryl Gillan: Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, the Welsh Assembly Government's total departmental expenditure limit (DEL) will be increased by £108,565,000 from £15,178,509,000 to £15,287,074,000.
	Within the total DEL change, the impact on resources and capital is set out in the following table:
	
		
			 £'000 
			  Change New DEL 
			 Resource DEL 27,203 13,884,529 
			 Capital DEL 81,362 1,754,860 
			 Less depreciation - -352,315 
			 TOTAL DEL 108,565 15,287,074 
		
	
	The change in the resource DEL element arises from:
	The take up of DEL end-year flexibility (EYF) of £102,547,000;
	A transfer of £208,000 from the Ministry of Justice in respect of health care at Cardiff Prison;
	A reduction of £113,541,000 which represents WAG's share of the £6 billion cuts announced in May 2010;
	A reduction of £5,850,000 following a transfer of provision to capital DEL;
	A reduction of £6,161,000 in respect of rate relief; and
	A claim on the reserve of £50,000,000 in respect of impairments within the student loans ring fence.
	The change in the capital DEL element arises from:
	The take up of DEL end-year flexibility (EYF) of £124,519,000;
	A reduction of £49,007,000 which represents WAG's share of the £6 billion cuts announced in May 2010; and
	An increase of £5,850,000 following a transfer of provision from resource DEL.
	As a result of these changes, the grant paid by the Wales Office to the Welsh Consolidated Fund increases by £141,066,000 from £13,314,503,000 to £13,455,569,000.
	In addition the Wales Office budget will increase by £1,936,000 as a result of:
	The take up of £1,300,000 resource DEL EYF; and
	A switch of £636,000 from capital DEL to resource DEL.
	Wales Office spending is contained within single Ministry of Justice departmental expenditure limit and administration costs limit.

WORK AND PENSIONS

Extension to Welfare to Work Contracts

Chris Grayling: The Government have previously announced their plans for radical reforms of the welfare to work system, starting with the nationwide implementation of the Work programme by the summer of 2011.
	Until the Work programme is implemented in June 2011, DWP's top priority is to ensure that claimants are properly supported during the transition. I am therefore pleased to announce we intend to extend referrals to existing mainstream support for jobseekers (new deals and flexible new deal) until June 2011.
	Jobseekers referred to existing contracts up to this point will receive a minimum 13 weeks provision and will subsequently be able to volunteer for early entry to the Work programme.
	We will also be extending progress2work contracts, taking into consideration current performance when agreeing the extensions.
	We will also be putting in place a new system of flexible and personalised support for ESA claimants to cover the interim period.
	As current support is a patchwork of contracts, across different dates and contract areas, transition arrangements will inevitably need to be tailored to local circumstances. However, the contract extensions we are aiming to agree will mean nobody will be unsupported in the transition to the Work programme.
